For a general reaction X →Y,\rightarrow Y, the plot of conc. Of X vs time is given in the figure. What is the order of the reaction and what are the units of rate constant?

A

Zero,molL−1s−1Zero,molL^{- 1}s^{- 1}

B

First,molL−1s−1First,molL^{- 1}s^{- 1}

C

Firsts−1Firsts^{- 1}

D

Zero,Lmol−1s−1Zero,Lmol^{- 1}s^{- 1}

Answer

Zero,molL−1s−1Zero,molL^{- 1}s^{- 1}

Explanation

Solution

For a zero order reaction, rate =kdxdt= k\frac{dx}{dt}

Units of k =molL−1s−1= molL^{- 1}s^{- 1}
